to ditch the big ring you could either cut the tabs off an old ring and use those or file down the female art of the bolt

Thanks...Good idea, I thought of that, but didn't want to take anymore time with this build; this was just a quickie for the fun of it. It'll be getting broken down or sold as is, to make room for other cool stuff

did these ever have a habit of cracking at the chainstay/bottom bracket area ? im tempted to remove the chainstay bridge from my frame and have gussets put on but need to give it enough thought

Had a rubber boot around the opening of the seat tube...peeled it off to see if there was anything weird going on underneath....all clean, perhaps I should've left it on since it holds out moisture well, and I don't know where I'm going to get a replacement

I found that if you buy an inner tube and a pair of scissors you get about 100 boots (I think that's where Bontrager got them from too!)
